Chapter 8 Toxic
The delicious aroma filled the kitchen along with the rising steam.Several chefs reached out to the assistant chef for side dishes, but after waiting for a long time, no side dishes were handed over. Looking back, those assistant chefs actually ran to watch Shen Jintang cook, and their mouths turned crooked in anger.

"What are you doing? Don't work with the wages, don't you want to do it?"

Several help cooks were huddling together, when they suddenly heard a roar, they were frightened and scattered, wiping the saliva from the corners of their mouths.

At this time, the guests in the lobby also smelled the delicious smell, and asked the waiter repeatedly what kind of food was being cooked in the kitchen.

The clerk rubbed his stiff face with a smile, and continued to smile and said: "Perhaps he has researched a new dish, I'll go to the kitchen and ask."

The guest waved his hands again and again: "Go, go!"

The guy quickly nodded and ran to the kitchen.

Cui He and Gu Baiyi were drinking tea in the private room, and they also smelled this delicious smell, and couldn't help calling the waiter: "What kind of food is so delicious in the kitchen?"

The guy just ran out of the kitchen and was sweating profusely. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied with a respectful smile, "Master, that girl did it."

"Oh? She made it." Cui He became interested, and told the waiter: "When it's ready, bring it up for us to taste."

When Shen Jintang and his staff walked into the box with a soup and a dish, they saw a man besides Cui He in the box.

Moreover, this man has a good appearance, clear facial lines, unruly and noble demeanor, and a pair of peach blossom eyes that sparkle sharply.

With just one glance, Shen Jintang felt that this man was not simple.

She narrowed her eyes slightly and stopped looking at him, and put the dishes in the tray on the round table in front of the two of them, signaling them to taste it.

As soon as the dishes came in, Gu Baiyi and Cui He could smell a more intense fragrance.

Cui He was not polite either, picked up the chopsticks on the table and grabbed the soup-stained mushrooms.

As soon as he took it in, the delicious taste exploded on the tip of his tongue. His eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but put another piece in his mouth.

Gu Baiyi leaned on the table with one hand and drank tea slowly, and put the other hand on his bent knee, with a relaxed posture and a compelling aura.

Seeing Cui He eat a few chopsticks and nod to him, he straightened his sitting posture, picked up the chopsticks and put a piece of fungus into his mouth.

Seeing this, Shen Jintang smiled.

Judging by Cui He's appearance, he should be quite satisfied with this stewed chicken and mushroom.

The kitchen here is much more complete with side dishes and seasonings than at home, so the taste is much better.

After the two finished tasting the stewed chicken with mushrooms, the waiter stepped forward to help serve some mushroom soup and placed them in front of the two of them.

This time, without waiting for Cui He to taste it first, Gu Baiyi picked up a spoon and put a spoonful into his mouth.

This soup is even more delicious than the sister-in-law's stewed mushrooms before, and I can't wait to swallow it with my tongue.

Gu Baiyi drank a few tablespoons in a row, only to feel warm in his stomach, like warm currents flowing into his limbs and bones.

If it is in the cold winter, it must be a good soup to nourish and warm the body.

After Cui He drank a bowl, he looked at Shen Jintang.

Seeing her standing there waiting for them to taste from the beginning to the end, not rushing or impatient, with a calm smile, she couldn't help but feel good.

"Miss, do you want to sell me the recipes for these two dishes?" Cui He asked with a smile.

Gu Baiyi also looked at her curiously.

Shen Jintang shook his head and said, "Selling prescriptions is second, and I'm here to sell fungi."

Mushroom seller?

Cui He was taken aback, then smiled: "Although I have never eaten dishes made with this fungus before, I also know that these fungi are everywhere, so I sent someone to pick them. Why did I buy yours?"

Hearing the words, the guy at the side suddenly thought of something, and his face turned pale.

Gu Baiyi noticed it and gave him a strange look.

Shen Jintang also looked Cui He and Gu Baiyi up and down after hearing the words, and then asked with a smile: "Isn't your son a local?"

If it is a local, how can it not know that the fungus is poisonous and cannot be eaten?

Seeing how he ate so neatly and without hesitation at all, Shen Jintang thought he was brave, but unexpectedly, he didn't know that fungi were poisonous.

Cui He also noticed the guy's face, and said, "So what if you're not a local?"

After saying that, he saw that the guy's legs were so weak that he couldn't stand and collapsed on the ground, and asked him again: "What's wrong with you?"

The man felt cold sweat pouring out in waves, his lips also turned white, and he said tremblingly: "Master, little one, damn it, you forgot that this fungus is poisonous, and many people have been eaten to death... "

Hearing this, Cui He also changed his face slightly, he first glanced nervously at Gu Baiyi, and saw that he was sitting there perfectly.Looking at Shen Jintang again, seeing that her expression was normal, she was slightly relieved, and felt that there was no discomfort in her body.

He asked, "Is this fungus actually poisonous?"

Only then did Shen Jintang speak in a timely manner: "Don't worry, my lord, what you eat is not poisonous."

"I'm the only person here who knows whether the fungus is poisonous or not. Besides, there are more than these two dishes that can be made from the fungus." She smiled and asked, "So, would you like to talk to me about this Business?"

Hearing this, Cui He laughed completely.

No wonder the girl said that selling prescriptions is the second priority, she is here to sell fungi.

He has read a lot of poetry and books, but he didn't know that fungi are also poisonous and non-toxic, which is a joke.

"Of course we want to talk about it." He said with a smile, looking at Shen Jintang with some appreciation: "I don't know how the girl wants to talk about this business?"

Shen Jintang smiled and said, "Master, let's negotiate the price! As long as the price given by you is fair and appropriate, it doesn't matter if Fang Zi gives it to you."

Cui He laughed again when he heard this, as long as the price he offered was reasonable and appropriate, would he give the prescription to him?
This fungus has never been on the dinner table before, and no one has bought or sold it. How can we judge whether the price is fair or not?

The girl obviously meant that she would only give him the prescription as long as the price he offered satisfied her.

Really, what a smart woman!

Such a smart woman came out of such a small and remote place.

Gu Baiyi leaned lazily on the chair, playing with a teacup in his bony hands, listening to their conversation with great interest.

When Shen Jintang said that as long as the price is fair and appropriate, he almost laughed out loud.

He wants to see what kind of price his uncle will give to satisfy this girl.

At this moment, he unknowingly put his eyes on Shen Jintang, and felt that the girl in front of him was much more interesting than those pretentious and serious girls in the capital.

Shen Yunxuan listened to the conversation between his younger sister and that son, and felt admiration and pride at the same time.
